What is the size of square hollow steel section?
When it comes to SS 304 Square Tubing, Hollow Section is your go-to source for a wide range of sizes and specifications.
Applications of Stainless Steel Square Hollow Sections – Ranflex Metals
The tubes’ square cross section is a strong geometrical feature. High-strength uses are a natural fit for the pipes. Pipes are used in a variety of high-temperature and high-pressure applications, such as heat exchangers. 316 stainless steel square tubing is sturdy and won’t rust. Chromium, nickel, and molybdenum are all found in 316 stainless steel. With a 215MPa minimum yield strength and a 505MPa minimum tensile strength, this combination provides enhanced corrosion resistance. The maximum temperature at which the tubes can function is 870 degrees Celsius. Oil and gas, petroleum, petrochemical, building, and structural applications are some of the other uses for SS square welded tube cases. The 317 grade material used to make SS317 square tubes, for example, has a tensile strength of at least 517MPa, making it one of the stronger grades available.
Specification of Stainless steel SHS
Square hollow section (SHS) structural tube made of stainless steel is widely utilized in the building and engineering industries. They’re made of stainless steel, so they won’t rust, melt, or wear out. SHS is typically made by welding together a square tube formed from a flat sheet of stainless steel.
Stainless steel square hollow sections excel in applications where saving weight is a priority due to its advantageous strength-to-weight ratio. They last a long time and don’t need much upkeep, so they save money in the long term.
